3. Air hose

Air hose must have a minimum working pressure rating of 150 psi (10.4 bar 10.6 kgf/

) or 150% of the maximum pressure produced in the system, whichever is higher.

4. Air consumption

Using the Air consumption table and the Air compressor size formula, find a correct

compressor size.

Air consumption table

Air compressor size formula

Amount of air required

= number of Nailers

× average nails driven each minute per Nailer

× air consumption at given air pressure

× safety factor (always 1.2)

Example: 3 Nailers operating at 100 psi driving 30 nails per minute

Amount of air required

= 3 × 30 × .042 (1.20) × 1.2

= 4.5 CFM (ft

/min) (95 ltr/min)

After making the calculations as shown above, you should find a compressor

providing 4.5 CFM of air that is required.

LUBRICATION

It is important that the Nailer be properly lubricated.

Without proper lubrication, the Nailer will not work properly and parts will wear prematurely.

䡬 Use Hitachi pneumatic tool lubricant.

Do not use detergent oil or additives. These lubricants will harm the O-rings and other

rubber parts. This will cause the Nailer to malfunction.

䡬 Filter-regulator-lubricator units should always be used.

Keep the lubricator filled with Hitachi pneumatic tool lubricant.

䡬 If a lubricator is not available, supply 5 – 10 drops of Hitachi pneumatic tool lubricant

into the air plug on the Nailer twice a day.

COLD WEATHER CARE

䡬 Do not store the Nailer in a cold weather environment.

Keep the Nailer in a warm area until beginning the work.

䡬 If the Nailer is already cold, bring it in a warm area and allow the Nailer to warm up

before use.

1 Reduce the air pressure to 64 psi (4.4 bar 4.5 kgf/cm

2 Remove all nails from the Nailer.

3 Connect the air hose and free-fire (blank-fire) the Nailer.

The lowered air pressure will be enough to free-fire the Nailer.

Slow speed operation tends to warm up the moving part.

CAUTION:

● Do not free-fire the Nailer at high pressure.

TESTING THE NAILER

● Operators and others in work area

MUST wear safety glasses with side

shields which conforms to ANSI Z87.1

specifications.

WARNING

● NEVER point tool at yourself or others in work area.

● Keep fingers AWAY from trigger when not driving nails to avoid

accidental firing.

● Choice of triggering method is important.

Please read and understand “METHODS OF OPERATION” found

below.

● Before starting work, check the nailing operation switching

device.

This Hitachi nailer includes a nailing operation switching device.

Before starting work, make sure that the switching device is

properly set.

If the switching device is not set properly, the nailer will not

operate correctly.

● Never place your face, hands or feet near firing head when using.

● Do not drive nails on top of other nails or with Nailer at too

䡬 CONTACT ACTUATION MECHANISM: First, press the push lever against the wood;

next, pull the trigger to drive the nail.

First, pull the trigger; next, press the push lever against the wood to drive the nail.

If the trigger is held back, a nail will be driven each time the push lever is pressed

against the wood.

METHODS OF OPERATION

This Nailer is equipped with the push lever and does not operate unless the push lever is

depressed (upward position).

There are two methods of operation to drive nails with this Nailer.

They are:

1. Intermittent operation (Trigger fire):

2. Continuous operation (Push lever fire):

(1) Intermittent operation (Trigger fire)

Use the SINGLE SEQUENTIAL ACTUATION MECHANISM setting.

WARNING

● For intermittent operation, set the switching device to the upward

position completely. (i.e. Set to SINGLE SEQUENTIAL

ACTUATION MECHANISM.)

● To avoid double firing or accidental firing due to recoil.

1) Set the switching device to SINGLE SEQUENTIAL ACTUATION

MECHANISM.

2) Pull the trigger rapidly and firmly.

1 Set the switching device to the upward position (to set to SINGLE SEQUENTIAL

ACTUATION MECHANISM).

(Set the switching device to the upward position completely as shown in the

diagram. Otherwise, it will be set to CONTACT ACTUATION MECHANISM.)

2 Position the nail outlet on the workpiece with finger off the trigger.

3 Depress the push lever firmly until it is completely depressed.

4 Pull the trigger to drive a nail.

5 Remove finger from the trigger.

To continue nailing in a separate location, move the nailer along the wood, repeating

steps 2 - 5 as required.

WARNING

● A nail will fire each time the trigger is depressed as long as the

push lever remains depressed.

(2) Continuous operation (Push lever fire)

Using CONTACT ACTUATION MECHANISM

WARNING

● To avoid double firing or accidental firing due to recoil.

1) Do not press the nailer against the wood with excessive force.

2) Separate the nailer from the wood as it recoils after nailing.

1 Set the switching device to the downward position (to set to CONTACT ACTUATION

MECHANISM).

(Set the switching device to the downward position completely as shown in the

diagram. Otherwise, it will not operate properly.)

2 Pull the trigger with the Nailer off the workpiece.

3 Depress the push lever against the workpiece to drive a nail.

4 Move the Nailer along the workpiece with a bouncing motion.

Each depression of the push lever will drive a nail.

As soon as the desired number of nails have been driven, remove finger from the

trigger.

WARNING

● Keep your finger off the trigger except during nailing operation,

beacuse serious injury could result if the push lever accidentally

contacts you or others in work area.

● Keep hands and body away from the discharge area. This Hitachi

nailer may bounce from the recoil of driving a nail and unwanted

subsequent nail may be driven, possibly causing injury.

The SINGLE SEQUENTIAL ACTUATION MECHANISM is for use where precision fastener

placement is desired.

The SINGLE SEQUENTIAL ACTUATION MECHANISM may reduce the possibility of bodily

injury to you or others in the work area compared to the CONTACT ACTUATION

MECHANISM. This is because it is less likely to drive an unwanted nail if you keep the

trigger pulled and accidentally bump the push lever against yourself or others.

The SINGLE SEQUENTIAL ACTUATION MECHANISM may also reduce the speed of

operation compared to the CONTACT ACTUATION MECHANISM. The SINGLE SEQUENTIAL

ACTUATION MECHANISM is recommended to inexperienced users.
